Markham sets a high bar. Along the Highway 7 tech corridor and in Unionville, Milliken, Cornell, Berczy, Markham Village and the Markham side of Thornhill, a lot of families work in engineering, software or finance and expect their kids to be strong in math, not just comfortable with it. The goals are concrete: a top program, a contest certificate, a Grade 12 average that holds up. Those goals are built over a term, not the night before a test. Online tutoring makes that kind of steady, week-after-week support practical.
Math tutoring for Markham students
We tutor Markham students across Grades 1 to 12, plus AP, IB and first-year university, online and by appointment. Each plan starts with a short diagnostic to find out exactly where a student stands, and then we build a term-long path with custom practice between lessons. Our tutors are university students who earned strong marks in these same Ontario courses recently, so they know the difference between a mark that is good and one that gets a student into the program they want. For a Markham student with a Waterloo contest on the calendar or a specific university in mind, the work is aimed squarely at that target.
Tracking the York Region curriculum, and beyond it
Markham students attend schools in the York Region District School Board or the York Catholic District School Board, and both follow the Ontario math curriculum. We align our lessons with that curriculum first, so classroom marks stay strong, and then push further for students who want contest preparation or a head start on the Grade 12 courses. Our high school math tutoring guide lays out the course codes and how they lead into university programs, and our elementary math tutoring guide explains the foundation the younger grades are meant to build. Grade 9 students in both boards also write the provincial EQAO Grade 9 math assessment, and our EQAO Grade 9 math guide explains what is on it and how to prepare.
Why online suits a Markham term
A Markham schedule is usually full by September: music, sports, language school on the weekend, maybe a robotics team. The lesson that survives all of that is the one that needs no driving and no parking. Online sessions put the same one-on-one attention on a shared whiteboard, where every step is visible and saved for review, and they fit into a weekday evening in Cornell or a Sunday morning in Unionville with nothing else moved. The tutor stays the same from September to June, so the plan compounds instead of restarting every time the calendar changes.
How to start
Start with a free 30-minute trial. Tell us the grade, the course and what is feeling shaky, and we will pair your child with the right tutor and build a plan. Lessons are 1-on-1 at $40 per hour, or $25 per student in a small group, with custom practice included and no commitment to continue.
We also work with families in Richmond Hill, Scarborough and North York, and with students anywhere else in Ontario.

Do you tutor students in Markham?
Yes. We work with Markham students online, by appointment, in Unionville, Milliken, Cornell, Berczy, Markham Village, the Markham side of Thornhill and across the rest of the city. Because sessions run over video, the same tutor can stay with your child through the whole term without anyone adding a drive to an already full week.
Which Markham school boards do you cover?
Both of the main York Region boards. We tutor students in the York Region District School Board and the York Catholic District School Board, and we follow the Ontario math curriculum their schools use, so classroom marks come first and any contest or enrichment work builds on top of that.
Is online tutoring as effective as in person?
For most students, yes, and for ambitious Markham students it is often the only format that fits. The shared whiteboard keeps every step visible, sessions drop into evenings and weekends without travel, and the tutor is chosen for fit. The free 30-minute trial shows you how it works before you commit.
What grades and courses do you cover?
Grades 1 to 12, plus AP, IB and first-year university. That runs from early number sense through the Grade 9 course (MTH1W) and up to the Grade 12 courses that competitive programs ask Markham students for, MHF4U, MCV4U and MDM4U, with contest preparation available alongside.
How much does it cost?
Solo lessons are $40 per hour and small-group classes are $25 per student per hour, with custom practice material included. You start with a free 30-minute trial.
